WOW, great news here. I would definitely try this out if I didn't already have a mod chip. But it's nice to know that if my Saturn dies, I won't have to send it to SegaStyle and get it modded.

Really happy to see things be developed in the retro scene. Just fantastic.

You even got some development in a Sega Saturn flash cart like they did with the Dreamcast. It's nowhere near perfect yet, and probably expensive, but just shows you how dedicated these guys can be. It's nice to know we will have an alternative down the line once we kill all the lasers with these CD-Rs.

Flash the cart with the Atlas disc and it works in the Model 2, menu comes up and everything. In the Victor the Saturn screen hangs or just drops to the music player.

Any chance the VCD card is causing this? When the VCD card/MPEG card is inserted, and you insert a movie it kicks out the CD player momentarily. Try taking this out. Be careful, they're wedged in there tight.

As I understand it, you flash the cart from a CD-R. So you need to be able to boot from a CD-R, at least once. If you don't have a mod chip you can try the swap trick. Or, you can send your AR cart to some with with a mod chip so they can do it for you. This is how FMCB makes its way around for the PS2, so I don't see why the same can't be done for the Saturn.
